Exactly. I think people are misunderstanding the spirit of the thread. No cities are going to be identical, especially when comparing from different regions. The point is to come up with the best match, understanding that it will be somewhat of a stretch... I thought that it was pretty obvious, but some posters seem to be taking these comparisons literally.

Isn't Houston a bit hotter than LA? Also, a bit flatter? I don't mean to offend as I understand Houston is sliced bread, but just throwing that out there.
